In a shocking turn of events, landowners in San Antonio stumbled upon a human skull while cutting their grass on Tuesday afternoon. This unexpected find took place on family-owned property located off the Highway 90 West Access Road near Pue Road. The discovery left many in the community feeling uneasy, and it raises questions about local safety and the history of the area.
According to the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office, the landowners were engaged in their typical yard work when they noticed something strange in a ditch. Initially, they thought it was just an unidentified object, but as they got closer, it became clear it was a human skull. Understandably shaken, they immediately reached out to the authorities for assistance.
Deputies quickly arrived on the scene to investigate further. Upon their arrival, it was confirmed that the skull was indeed human, and they found more skeletal remains in the vicinity, along with what appeared to be work-type clothes. Sheriff Javier Salazar shared with reporters the difficulties and complexities of the situation, stating, “It’s obvious this body has been here for a while.” While they are currently assuming it belonged to a male, they acknowledge it is too soon to determine the identity definitively.
The sun-bleached bones indicated that the remains could have been out in the open for over a year. “It’s too soon to tell if there’s foul play or if this was a homeless individual who may have perished from natural causes,” Salazar explained. The lack of any visible signs of injury adds to the mystery surrounding this unfortunate case, leaving investigators with more questions than answers.
Interestingly, the landowners have had this property in their family since the 1850s! They checked the land over a year ago and found nothing unusual at that time, highlighting the eerie situation they’ve found themselves in now. In light of these recent events, they are understandably concerned, particularly since they cannot identify who the deceased individual might be.
At this stage of the investigation, Sheriff Salazar and his team will be cross-checking the skeletal remains with missing persons reports in the Bexar County area. They are also collaborating with the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office to determine more details about what may have transpired. It’s a complicated situation, and investigators are being careful in their approach to ensure that they piece together the circumstances surrounding this tragic find.
As word of this unsettling discovery spreads, the San Antonio community is left with a lot of feelings, from curiosity to concern. It serves as a stark reminder that there are many untold stories hidden beneath the surface. As the investigation continues, everyone is hoping for clarity and justice for whoever the deceased may be.
It’s also a reminder for all of us to be aware of our surrounding, especially while doing something as routine as yard work. Keep an eye out, stay alert, and who knows what you might discover!
